Hotel Brunelleschi, Florence

Who? Hotel Brunelleschi

What? How many hotels can boast its own museum? Hotel Brunelleschi is certainly one. Though it could be said that the hotel is a museum in itself having incorporated historical structures from the Roman era. The interiors are anything but dated, though. Renovated as recently as 2012, it really is luxury in the heart of Florence. Perhaps that’s why it is, amongst other things, a member of the Great Hotels of the World Luxury Collection.

When? Open year round

Where? Piazza Santa Elisabetta, 3 50122 Florence, Italy
